Gradiometer data superimposed on the conductivity data. Notice the difference in the way house locations are expressed; irregular concentrations of low readings in the conductivity and wall trenches, hearths and low house mound in the gradiometer image. Notice also the greater detail which is revealed in the gradiometer image of the ring patterns.
